5PRECAUTIONS

LCD Panel
In	order	to	suppress	the	luminosity	change	by	long-term	use	and	to	maintain	the	stable	luminosity,	use	of	a	monitor	in	
lower brightness is recommended.
The LCD panel is manufactured using high-precision technology. However, note that the appearance of any missing 
pixels or lit pixels does not indicate damage to the LCD monitor.
Percentage of effective pixels: 99.9994% or higher.
The backlight of the LCD panel has a fixed life span. When the screen becomes dark or begins to flicker, please contact 
your dealer.
Do not press on the panel or edge of the frame strongly, as this may result in damage to the screen. There will be prints 
left on the screen if the pressed image is dark or black. If pressure is repeatedly applied to the screen, it may deteriorate 
or damage your LCD panel. Leave the screen white to decrease the prints.
Do	not	scratch	or	press	on	the	panel	with	any	sharp	objects,	such	as	a	pencil	or	pen	as	this	may	result	in	damage	to	the	
panel. Do not attempt to brush with tissues as this may scratch the LCD panel.
When the monitor is cold and brought into a room or the room temperature goes up quickly , dew condensation 
may occur inside and outside the monitor. In that case, do not turn the monitor on and wait until dew condensation 
disappears, otherwise it may cause damage to the monitor.
To use the monitor comfortably
An excessively dark or bright screen may affect your eyes. Adjust the brightness of the monitor according to the 
environmental conditions.
Staring at the monitor for a long time tires your eyes. Take a 10-minute rest every hour.
